The joystick screws
supplied with the Joystick Restrictor kit, which were installed in
the first step, have now been removed and replaced with the
original carriage bolts one at a time, thus keeping the joystick
base properly centered.
Black hole plugs are
inserted in the Restrictor Plate holes for a finished look when
the restrictors are not installed.
The pinned
connection for the Restrictor Plates works extremely well when the
holes are drilled exactly perpendicular to the control panel and
using the Mounting Plate as a guide. This contradicts
earlier information and comments made regarding the use of the
Restrictor Plates without a Mounting Plate, as well as the
use of a pinned connection. However, a lot more care was
taken with the modification of this HotRod than during the
prototyping/testing phase of the Joystick Restrictors, and it has shown that
this style of installation is not only possible, but also gives
excellent results when properly planned!
